Neither the 18-year-old boy nor his parents wanted to see Boncal charged. She was arrested last week after being placed on administrative leave when another student who knew about the affair told the school's athletic director about it

According to Boncal's arrest affidavit, she and the boy had oral sex and intercourse several times after striking up a relationship at Conard High School in West Hartford, Connecticut.

She was a social sciences teacher there and was also an assistant track coach. She taught the boy in some of her classes.

It began when he asked her for her phone number in December. She joined the school as a student teacher in April 2017.

The pair began exchanging explicit text messages and photos then, when the boy lost his phone, they moved their correspondence onto Facebook messenger.

According to police, the first sexual encounter happened in December, sometime around Christmas, at Boncal's home.

It was not her family home but the address she had used while studying, police said.

The first time they had sex, both she and the boy said they engaged in intercourse and then she performed oral sex on him.
